it's an ionic bond. sodium donates its e- to chlorine and you have a bond.
One electron from the sodium atom is transferred to the chlorine atom, forming a positively charged sodium ion and a negatively charged chloride ion. The electrostatic attraction between the two oppositely charged ions forms the ionic bond.
ionic bond
you can freeze them than the perticles wont move
Covalent bonds are between two non-metals while ionic bonds are made between a metal and a non-metal. Chlorine is a non-metal, so a covalent bond forms in a diatomic molecule of chlorine.
Chlorine is an element; it contains only chlorine atoms. It its elemental form it forms diatomic molecules.

Covalent bond.

An ionic bond
Pure Covalent Bond
Reaction between an acid and a metal is usally, salt and hydrogen. So i think the reaction between chlorine and acid forms a salt and a gas.

ionic bond
Chlorine forms a negative ion.
Chlorine forms just one bond.
